Large, sharp thermal images Thanks to the largest display (five-inch) available on this type of thermal imager in combination with low-noise VOx sensors, the Fluke IR FlexCam units produce exceptionally high-quality images making even the smallest temperature differences visible. This is comparable with images normally only obtained on far more expensive instruments.

A sharp image in every situation The innovative 180° articulating lens makes it possible to view and capture images in areas with poor accessibility. The display remains clearly visible while viewing over high objects, under a machine or around immoveable obstructions. The SmartFocus wheel simplifies getting a stable and sharp image. No need to take your hand off the instrument to turn a focus ring.

Make anomalies visible Thanks to built-in functions like AutoCapture, the IR FlexCam Thermal Imagers help to troubleshoot difficult problems. The instrument is easily set up to automatically capture only those images where a temperature limit is exceeded. This way, difficult to find intermittent problems can be captured and analyzed quicker by concentrating only on the images containing the anomalies.

Analysis and reporting comes standard The SmartView™ software (supplied with the unit) includes a complete range of infrared image viewing, analysis, annotation and reporting tools. It even allows for customized reports to accommodate specific company work processes or requirements like multiple image reporting and comparisons.

Radiometric measurement – the “data behind the picture” Fully radiometric thermal imagers capture and store calibrated temperature data for the matrix of thousands of points that make up a thermal image. This makes it possible to perform detailed analysis and change key parameters like emissivity or temperature range either in the field on the camera or in the office using the PC software.
